Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bursting device for a high-voltage device.
  • the bursting device has at least one cover which closes an opening formed in a wall of the high-voltage device and which has a peripheral edge.
  • the bursting device is suitable for on-load tap-changers or high-voltage transformers that are filled with a filling medium such as gas or oil.
  • High-voltage devices such as high-voltage transformers get very hot due to the high currents and voltages during operation.
  • the transformer windings are arranged in a so-called boiler.
  • This boiler is sealed airtight and filled with a transformer oil. Through a cooling circuit, the transformer oil is used to keep the operating temperature low.
  • winding short-circuits for example, can cause the transformer oil to heat up extremely quickly and thereby expand. Expansion of the transformer oil can result in the boiler not being able to withstand the pressure, breaking in an uncontrolled manner and parts of the boiler being thrown around.
  • predefined breaking points in the form of rupture disks are introduced into the boiler, that is to say the housing of the high-voltage transformer.
  • a high-voltage device secured against pressure waves and filled with insulating liquid and / or gas is known.
  • This high-voltage device has an opening which is closed by means of a rupture disk.
  • the rupture disc consists of hard paper, which is covered on the inside by a metal foil.
  • the hard paper disk and the metal foil are screwed onto the housing wall of the high-voltage device via a ring.
  • the hard paper disk is sealed against the housing wall and the ring with a rubber sealing ring.
  • a particular disadvantage of this rupture disc is its structural design and the material used. To protect the part made of hard paper from the aggressive oil, it is imperative to use a metal foil. During assembly, however, it can easily happen that the metal foil slips, aggressive oil penetrates the hard paper disk and the high-voltage device is no longer properly sealed. Another disadvantage is that the hard paper disk is very sensitive. During maintenance work, it can happen that a fitter unintentionally steps on the membrane and destroyed it. Another problem with the hard paper solution is its longevity. The material can tire due to external influences and break even with a slight increase in pressure. Such false triggering is associated with a high level of maintenance and is therefore undesirable. Since the hard paper disk is homogeneously formed over the entire surface, it is unpredictable how it would break if the pressure suddenly increased.
  • a voltage converter with a surrounding sheath is known as a protective device.
  • An overpressure safety device is arranged on the top of the casing.
  • the overpressure safety device is designed as a bursting device with an opening which is closed by a bursting film. When a certain pressure in the voltage converter is reached, the bursting film tears open.
  • the material used can also be seen as a weak point in this bursting device. As the film is exposed to the weather, material fatigue can occur over time. It is also possible here that the film tears at a significantly lower pressure than originally defined and that an unwanted false triggering occurs. Furthermore, due to carelessness, the bursting foil can also be destroyed during maintenance work, since this is not protected against the action of force.
  • EP 0 120 380 discloses a safety device against impermissible pressure in a container, in which a cuttable closure element in the form of a membrane is provided, which hermetically seals a pressure relief opening in a container wall.
  • the closure element is assigned a cutting device which is held in an initial position by a rigid holding member which is under the internal pressure of the container and has a predetermined breaking point.
  • the holding member is rigidly connected to the cutting device, which in turn is rigidly connected to a plate.
  • the closure element on the other hand, is clamped between the plate and a further plate, excluding a free edge for the engagement of the cutting device, which is arranged on the side of the closure element opposite the internal pressure of the container.
  • DE 31 10 951 and DE 73 30 530 U disclose a high-voltage device with a cover / roof and a bolt or screw as a pressure relief device, break or tear at a certain pressure.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a bursting device which is inexpensive, service-friendly, long-lasting, insensitive to weather influences from the outside, easy to install and replace, and triggers reliably in the event of a fault.
  • a support block is assigned to each receiving block, which is attached to the peripheral edge of the opening via a catch element.
  • the second section of the shear pin sits in the support block or projects into it.
  • At least one securing element is connected to the inner surface of the burst cork and to the peripheral edge of the opening.
  • the flange section of the bursting cork and a wall of the high-voltage device oriented in the direction of an axis of the opening each carry a seal which cooperates in a sealing manner with the peripheral extension of the opening.
  • a compression spring can be arranged in the direction of the axis of the opening between the flange section of the burst cork and the wall of the high-voltage device.
  • the shear pin preferably has a predetermined breaking point between the first section and the second section.
  • the inner surface of the burst cork has three receiving blocks. Each support block is assigned a support block, so that a shear pin protrudes into the support block and the support block.

  • the shear pin 8 In the event of a sudden increase in pressure inside the high-voltage device 2 (see Fig. 1 ) presses the transformer oil against the inner surface 3B of the bursting cork 3, for example. From a certain pressure level, the shear pin 8 will fail and the pressure can then escape through the bursting cork 3 that is then opened. In particular, the shear pin 8 has a predetermined breaking point 8C, so that when a predetermined value is exceeded the shear pin 8 always breaks at this predetermined breaking point 8C. The burst cork 3 opens the opening 5 in the wall 4 of the high-voltage device 2 and the excess pressure can be reduced in a targeted manner.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Bersteinrichtung für ein Hochspannungsgerät. Insbesondere weist die Bersteinrichtung zumindest eine Abdeckung auf, die eine in einer Wand des Hochspannungsgerätes ausgebildete Öffnung, die einen umlaufenden Rand besitzt, verschließt. Die Bersteinrichtung ist für Laststufenschalter oder Hochspannungstransformatoren geeignet, die mit einem Füllmedium wie Gas oder Öl gefüllt sind.The invention relates to a bursting device for a high-voltage device. In particular, the bursting device has at least one cover which closes an opening formed in a wall of the high-voltage device and which has a peripheral edge. The bursting device is suitable for on-load tap-changers or high-voltage transformers that are filled with a filling medium such as gas or oil.

Hochspannungsgeräte wie beispielsweise Hochspannungstransformatoren werden auf Grund der hohen Ströme und Spannungen während des Betriebes sehr heiß. Aus diesem Grund sind die Transformatorwicklungen in einem sogenannten Kessel angeordnet. Dieser Kessel ist luftdicht verschlossen und mit einem Transformatoröl gefüllt. Durch einen Kühlkreislauf wird das Transformatoröl dazu verwendet, die Betriebstemperatur niedrig zu halten. Während des Betriebes kann es jedoch durch beispielsweise Wicklungskurzschlüsse dazu kommen, dass sich das Transformatoröl extrem schnell erwärmt und sich dadurch ausdehnt. Das Ausdehnen des Transformatoröls kann dazu führen, dass der Kessel dem Druck nicht Stand hält, unkontrolliert bricht und Teile des Kessels herum geschleudert werden. Um einen derartigen Druckanstieg gezielt kompensieren zu können, werden vordefinierte Bruchstellen in Form von Berstscheiben in den Kessel, also das Gehäuse des Hochspannungstransformators, eingebracht.High-voltage devices such as high-voltage transformers get very hot due to the high currents and voltages during operation. For this reason, the transformer windings are arranged in a so-called boiler. This boiler is sealed airtight and filled with a transformer oil. Through a cooling circuit, the transformer oil is used to keep the operating temperature low. During operation, however, winding short-circuits, for example, can cause the transformer oil to heat up extremely quickly and thereby expand. Expansion of the transformer oil can result in the boiler not being able to withstand the pressure, breaking in an uncontrolled manner and parts of the boiler being thrown around. In order to be able to compensate for such an increase in pressure in a targeted manner, predefined breaking points in the form of rupture disks are introduced into the boiler, that is to say the housing of the high-voltage transformer.

Aus der DE 17 21 316 U ist ein gegen Druckwellen gesichertes, mit Isolierflüssigkeit und/oder Gas gefülltes Hochspannungsgerät bekannt. Dieses Hochspannungsgerät weist eine Öffnung auf, die mittels einer Berstscheibe verschlossen ist. Die Berstscheibe besteht aus Hartpapier, das auf der Innenseite von einer Metallfolie bedeckt wird. Die Hartpapierscheibe sowie die Metallfolie sind über einen Ring an die Gehäusewand des Hochspannungsgeräts geschraubt. Die Hartpapierscheibe ist gegen die Gehäusewand und den Ring mit jeweils einem Gummidichtring abgedichtet.From the DE 17 21 316 U a high-voltage device secured against pressure waves and filled with insulating liquid and / or gas is known. This high-voltage device has an opening which is closed by means of a rupture disk. The rupture disc consists of hard paper, which is covered on the inside by a metal foil. The hard paper disk and the metal foil are screwed onto the housing wall of the high-voltage device via a ring. The hard paper disk is sealed against the housing wall and the ring with a rubber sealing ring.

Besonders nachteilig bei dieser Berstscheibe ist deren konstruktiver Aufbau und das verwendete Material. Um den aus Hartpapier bestehenden Teil vor dem aggressiven Öl zu schützen, ist es zwingend notwendig, eine Metallfolie zu verwenden. Bei der Montage kann es jedoch leicht passieren, dass die Metallfolie verrutscht, dass aggressive Öl an die Hartpapierscheibe dringt und das Hochspannungsgerät nicht mehr richtig abgedichtet wird. Ein weiterer Nachteil besteht darin, dass die Hartpapierscheibe sehr empfindlich ist. Bei Wartungsarbeiten kann es passieren, dass ein Monteur unbeabsichtigt auf die Membran tritt und diese zerstört. Ein weiteres Problem bei der Hartpapierlösung ist deren Langlebigkeit. Durch äußere Einflüsse kann das Material ermüden und schon bei geringem Druckanstieg brechen. Eine solche Fehlauslösung ist mit hohem Wartungsaufwand verbunden und somit unerwünscht. Da die Hartpapierscheibe über die gesamte Fläche homogen ausgebildet ist, ist es nicht vorhersehbar, wie diese bei einem plötzlichen Druckanstieg brechen würde.A particular disadvantage of this rupture disc is its structural design and the material used. To protect the part made of hard paper from the aggressive oil, it is imperative to use a metal foil. During assembly, however, it can easily happen that the metal foil slips, aggressive oil penetrates the hard paper disk and the high-voltage device is no longer properly sealed. Another disadvantage is that the hard paper disk is very sensitive. During maintenance work, it can happen that a fitter unintentionally steps on the membrane and destroyed it. Another problem with the hard paper solution is its longevity. The material can tire due to external influences and break even with a slight increase in pressure. Such false triggering is associated with a high level of maintenance and is therefore undesirable. Since the hard paper disk is homogeneously formed over the entire surface, it is unpredictable how it would break if the pressure suddenly increased.

Aus der DE 20 016 065 U1 ist ein Spannungswandler mit einer umschließenden Hülle als Schutzvorrichtung bekannt. Auf der Oberseite der Hülle ist eine Überdrucksicherung angeordnet. Die Überdrucksicherung ist als Bersteinrichtung mit einer Öffnung, die durch eine Berstfolie verschlossen ist, ausgebildet. Beim Erreichen eines bestimmten Druckes im Spannungswandler reißt die Berstfolie auf.From the DE 20 016 065 U1 a voltage converter with a surrounding sheath is known as a protective device. An overpressure safety device is arranged on the top of the casing. The overpressure safety device is designed as a bursting device with an opening which is closed by a bursting film. When a certain pressure in the voltage converter is reached, the bursting film tears open.

Auch bei dieser Bersteinrichtung ist das verwendete Material als Schwachstelle zu sehen. Da die Folie der Witterung ausgesetzt wird, kann es im Laufe der Zeit zu Materialermüdung kommen. So ist es auch hier möglich, dass die Folie bei deutlich geringerem Druck als ursprünglich definiert reißt und es zu einer ungewollten Fehlauslösung kommt. Weiterhin kann es auch hier bei Wartungsarbeiten durch Unachtsamkeit zur Zerstörung der Berstfolie kommen, da diese gegen Krafteinwirkung nicht geschützt ist.The material used can also be seen as a weak point in this bursting device. As the film is exposed to the weather, material fatigue can occur over time. It is also possible here that the film tears at a significantly lower pressure than originally defined and that an unwanted false triggering occurs. Furthermore, due to carelessness, the bursting foil can also be destroyed during maintenance work, since this is not protected against the action of force.

Schrauben als Überdrucksicherung, bei bestimmem Überdruck brechen bzw. durchreißen.The holding member is rigidly connected to the cutting device, which in turn is rigidly connected to a plate. The closure element, on the other hand, is clamped between the plate and a further plate, excluding a free edge for the engagement of the cutting device, which is arranged on the side of the closure element opposite the internal pressure of the container. FR 2 910 584 . DE 31 10 951 and DE 73 30 530 U disclose a high-voltage device with a cover / roof and a bolt or screw as a pressure relief device, break or tear at a certain pressure.

Die dargestellten Ausführungsformen stellen lediglich Beispiele dar, wie die erfindungsgemäße Bersteinrichtung ausgebildet sein kann und stellen somit keine abschließende Begrenzung der Erfindung dar.Identical reference numerals are used for identical or identically acting elements of the invention. Furthermore, for the sake of clarity, only reference numerals are shown in the individual figures which are necessary for the description of the respective figure. The illustrated embodiments merely represent examples of how the bursting device according to the invention can be designed and thus do not represent a final limitation of the invention.

Fig. 1 zeigt ein Hochspannungsgerät 2, das in einer Wand 4 beziehungsweise einem Wandteil eine Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Bersteinrichtung 1 eingebaut hat. Die Bersteinrichtung 1 umfasst als Abdeckung zumindest einen Berstkorken 3, mit dem das Hochspannungsgerät 2 nach außen hin verschlossen ist. Das Hochspannungsgerät 2 kann beispielsweise ein Laststufenschalter sein. Die Bersteinrichtung 1 kann jedoch auch an einem beliebigen Hochspannungsgerät 2, wie beispielsweise einem Hochspannungstransformator, welcher mit einem Füllmedium, beispielsweise Öl oder Gas, befüllt ist, angebracht werden. Bei der hier gezeigten Ausführungsform ist die Wand 4 ein Deckel eines Lastumschalters und die Bersteinrichtung 1 ist im Deckel 4 vorgesehen. Fig. 1 shows a high-voltage device 2, which has an embodiment of the bursting device 1 according to the invention installed in a wall 4 or a wall part. The bursting device 1 comprises at least one bursting cork 3 as a cover, with which the high-voltage device 2 is closed to the outside. The high-voltage device 2 can be, for example, an on-load tap changer. However, the bursting device 1 can also be attached to any high-voltage device 2, such as a high-voltage transformer, which is filled with a filling medium, for example oil or gas. In the embodiment shown here, the wall 4 is a cover of a diverter switch and the bursting device 1 is provided in the cover 4.

Fig. 2 zeigt eine Schnittansicht der Bersteinrichtung 1 entlang der Linie B-B aus Fig. 1. Die Bersteinrichtung 1 umfasst als Abdeckung zumindest den Berstkorken 3, der in einer Öffnung 5 einer Wand 4 des Hochspannungsgerätes 2 angeordnet ist. Der Berstkorken 3 weist eine Außenfläche 3A auf, die mit der äußeren Umgebung des Hochspannungsgerätes 2 in Verbindung steht. Weiterhin weist der Berstkorken 3 eine Innenfläche 3B auf, die mit dem Innenraum des Hochspannungsgerätes 2 in Verbindung steht. Die Öffnung 5 in der Wand 4 ist dabei symmetrisch um eine Achse A der Öffnung 5 ausgerichtet. Fig. 2 shows a sectional view of the bursting device 1 along the line BB from Fig. 1 , The bursting device 1 comprises at least the burst cork 3 as a cover, which is arranged in an opening 5 of a wall 4 of the high-voltage device 2. The bursting cork 3 has an outer surface 3A which is in contact with the outer environment of the high-voltage device 2 communicates. Furthermore, the bursting cork 3 has an inner surface 3B, which is connected to the interior of the high-voltage device 2. The opening 5 in the wall 4 is aligned symmetrically about an axis A of the opening 5.

Fig. 3 zeigt den vergrößerten Ausschnitt D aus Fig. 2. Der Berstkorken 3 sitzt in der Öffnung 5 der Wand 4. Auf der Innenfläche 3B des Berstkorkens ist mindestens ein Aufnahmeblock 7 vorgesehen, in dem ein Scherstift 8 sitzt beziehungsweise eingebracht ist. Der Scherstift 8 weist einen ersten Abschnitt 8A und einen zweiten Abschnitt 8B auf. Der erste Abschnitt 8A ragt zumindest teilweise in den Aufnahmeblock 7. Der zweite Abschnitt 8B des Scherstiftes 8 befindet sich unterhalb des umlaufenden Randes 9 der Öffnung 5 und/oder unmittelbar an dem umlaufenden Rand 9. Der Scherstift 8 weist außerdem bevorzugt eine Sollbruchstelle 8C auf. Fig. 3 shows the enlarged section D. Fig. 2 , The bursting cork 3 sits in the opening 5 of the wall 4. At least one receiving block 7 is provided on the inner surface 3B of the bursting cork, in which a shear pin 8 is seated or inserted. The shear pin 8 has a first section 8A and a second section 8B. The first section 8A projects at least partially into the receiving block 7. The second section 8B of the shear pin 8 is located below the circumferential edge 9 of the opening 5 and / or directly on the circumferential edge 9. The shear pin 8 also preferably has a predetermined breaking point 8C.

Bei einem plötzlichen Druckanstieg im Inneren des Hochspannungsgerätes 2 (siehe Fig. 1) drückt beispielsweise das Transformatoröl gegen die Innenfläche 3B des Berstkorkens 3. Ab einem bestimmten Druckniveau wird der Scherstift 8 versagen und über den dann geöffneten Berstkorken 3 kann der Druck entweichen. Im Besonderen hat der Scherstift 8 eine Sollbruchstelle 8C ausgebildet, so dass bei Überschreiten eines festgelegten Werts der Scherstift 8 definiert immer an dieser Sollbruchstelle 8C bricht. Der Berstkorken 3 gibt die Öffnung 5 in der Wand 4 des Hochspannungsgerätes 2 frei und der Überdruck kann gezielt abgebaut werden.In the event of a sudden increase in pressure inside the high-voltage device 2 (see Fig. 1 ) presses the transformer oil against the inner surface 3B of the bursting cork 3, for example. From a certain pressure level, the shear pin 8 will fail and the pressure can then escape through the bursting cork 3 that is then opened. In particular, the shear pin 8 has a predetermined breaking point 8C, so that when a predetermined value is exceeded the shear pin 8 always breaks at this predetermined breaking point 8C. The burst cork 3 opens the opening 5 in the wall 4 of the high-voltage device 2 and the excess pressure can be reduced in a targeted manner.

Weiterhin weist der Berstkorken 3 einen umlaufenden Flanschabschnitt 13 auf, der bei einem in die Öffnung 5 eingesetzten Berstkorken 3 auf einen umlaufenden Ansatz 14 der Öffnung 5 aufliegt. Durch das Zusammenwirken von Flanschabschnitt 13 und Ansatz 14 wird die Öffnung 5 verschlossen.Furthermore, the bursting cork 3 has a circumferential flange section 13 which, in the case of a bursting cork 3 inserted into the opening 5, rests on a circumferential projection 14 of the opening 5. The opening 5 is closed by the interaction of flange section 13 and extension 14.

Zwischen dem Flanschabschnitt 13 und dem umlaufenden Ansatz 14 kann mindestens eine Dichtung 15 und/oder eine Druckfeder (hier nicht dargestellt) angeordnet sein. Die Dichtung 15 wirkt mit dem umlaufenden Ansatz 14 der Öffnung 5 dichtend zusammen. Die Anordnung einer Druckfeder verhindert, dass der Berstkorken 3 zu locker auf der Öffnung 5 sitzt.At least one seal 15 and / or a compression spring (not shown here) can be arranged between the flange section 13 and the peripheral projection 14. The seal 15 cooperates with the peripheral projection 14 of the opening 5 in a sealing manner. The arrangement of a compression spring prevents the burst cork 3 from sitting too loosely on the opening 5.

Fig. 4 zeigt in einer Schnittdarstellung gemäß der Linie B-B aus Fig. 1 eine zweite Ausführungsform der Bersteinrichtung 1. Hier ist dem Berstkorken 3 mindestens ein Aufnahmeblock 7 und ein dazu korrespondierender Abstützblock 10 zugeordnet. In den Aufnahmeblock 7 und den Abstützblock 10 ragt zur Sicherung der Scherstift 8. Fig. 4 shows in a sectional view along the line BB from Fig. 1 a second embodiment of the bursting device 1. Here, the bursting cork 3 is assigned at least one receiving block 7 and a corresponding support block 10. The shear pin 8 projects into the receiving block 7 and the support block 10 to secure it.

Fig. 5 zeigt eine vergrößerte Darstellung des in Fig. 4 mit E gekennzeichneten Bereichs der Bersteinrichtung 1 aus Fig. 4. Der zweite Abschnitt 8B des Scherstiftes 8 ragt in den Abstützblock 10. Der erste Abschnitt 8A des Scherstiftes 8 ragt in den Aufnahmeblock 7. Der Aufnahmeblock 7 ist fest mit der Innenfläche 3B des Berstkorkens 3 verbunden. Der Abstützblock 10 ist am umlaufenden Rand 9 der Öffnung 5 derart angebracht, dass er dem Aufnahmeblock 7 unmittelbar gegenüber liegt. Fig. 5 shows an enlarged view of the in Fig. 4 area marked with E of the bursting device 1 Fig. 4 , The second section 8B of the shear pin 8 projects into the support block 10. The first section 8A of the shear pin 8 projects into the receiving block 7. The receiving block 7 is firmly connected to the inner surface 3B of the bursting cork 3. The support block 10 is attached to the peripheral edge 9 of the opening 5 in such a way that it lies directly opposite the receiving block 7.

Fig. 6 und Fig. 7 zeigen eine Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Bersteinrichtung 1 mit einem Berstkorken 3 in perspektivischer Ansicht von unten, beispielsweise gemäß den Ausführungsformen nach Fig. 1 bis 5. Insbesondere ist die Innenfläche 3B des Berstkorkens 3 dargestellt. Jeder Abstützblock 10 (siehe Fig. 4) ist bevorzugt über ein Fangelement 11 am umlaufenden Rand 9 der Öffnung 5 befestigt. Das Fangelement 11 kann vorzugsweise als Lochband ausgebildet sein. Zusätzlich ist mindestens ein Sicherungselement 12 vorgesehen, welches die Innenfläche 3B des Berstkorkens 3 mit dem umlaufenden Rand 9 der Öffnung 5 verbindet. Auch das Sicherungselement 12 kann vorzugsweise als Lochband ausgebildet sein. Das Sicherungselement 12 ist beispielsweise, wie hier dargestellt, mit der Innenfläche 3B des Berstkorkens 3 und dem umlaufenden Rand 9 der Öffnung 5 verschraubt. Ebenso ist das Fangelement 11 mit dem umlaufenden Rand 9 der Öffnung 5 beispielsweise verschraubt. Der Aufnahmeblock 7 ist an der Innenfläche 3B des Berstkorkens 3 beispielsweise angeschraubt. Fig. 6 and Fig. 7 show an embodiment of the bursting device 1 according to the invention with a bursting cork 3 in a perspective view from below, for example according to the embodiments of FIG 1 to 5 , In particular, the inner surface 3B of the bursting cork 3 is shown. Each support block 10 (see Fig. 4 ) is preferably attached to the peripheral edge 9 of the opening 5 via a catch element 11. The catching element 11 can preferably be designed as a perforated band. In addition, at least one securing element 12 is provided, which connects the inner surface 3B of the bursting cork 3 with the peripheral edge 9 of the opening 5. The securing element 12 can also preferably be designed as a perforated band. The securing element 12 is, for example, as shown here, screwed to the inner surface 3B of the burst cork 3 and the peripheral edge 9 of the opening 5. Likewise, the catch element 11 is screwed to the peripheral edge 9 of the opening 5, for example. The receiving block 7 is screwed onto the inner surface 3B of the bursting cork 3, for example.

Bei einem Druckanstieg im Inneren des Hochspannungsgerätes 2 über eine vordefinierte Schwelle drückt beispielsweise das Transformatoröl gegen die Innenfläche 3B des Berstkorkens 3. Sollte der Druck einen durch den Scherstift 8, insbesondere dessen Sollbruchstelle 8C, festgelegten Wert überschreiten, bricht dieser und der Berstkorken 3 gibt die Öffnung 5 in der Wand 4 des Hochspannungsgerätes 2 frei. Da der zweite Abschnitt 8B des Scherstiftes 8 in den Abstützblock 10 ragt und dieser wiederum am umlaufenden Rand 9 der Öffnung 5 über das Fangelement 11 gesichert ist, wird verhindert, dass der zweite Abschnitt 8B des Scherstiftes 8 in das Innere des Hochspannungsgerätes 2 fällt. Ebenso ist der erste Abschnitt 8A des Scherstiftes 8 im Aufnahmeblock 7 festgelegt. Eine Kontamination des Hochspannungsgerätes 2 durch Teile eines zerbrochenen Scherstiftes 8 ist verhindert. Da der Berstkorken 3 über mindestens ein Sicherungselement 12 am umlaufenden Rand 9 der Öffnung 5 befestigt ist, wird verhindert, dass der Berstkorken 3 unkontrolliert in die Umgebung des Hochspannungsgerätes 2 geschleudert wird. Vorzugsweise ist der Berstkorken 3 über zwei Sicherungselemente 12 und drei Scherstifte 8 gesichert. Hier sind folglich drei Aufnahmeblöcke 7 mit den entsprechenden Abstützblöcken 10 vorgesehen.If the pressure inside the high-voltage device 2 rises above a predefined threshold, the transformer oil, for example, presses against the inner surface 3B of the bursting cork 3. If the pressure exceeds a value determined by the shear pin 8, in particular its predetermined breaking point 8C, the latter breaks and the bursting cork 3 gives it Opening 5 in the wall 4 of the high-voltage device 2 free. Since the second section 8B of the shear pin 8 projects into the support block 10 and this in turn is secured on the peripheral edge 9 of the opening 5 via the catch element 11, the second section 8B of the shear pin 8 is prevented from falling into the interior of the high-voltage device 2. The first section 8A of the shear pin 8 is also fixed in the receiving block 7. Contamination of the high-voltage device 2 by parts of a broken shear pin 8 is prevented. Since the bursting cork 3 is fastened to the peripheral edge 9 of the opening 5 by means of at least one securing element 12, the bursting cork 3 is prevented from being thrown into the surroundings of the high-voltage device 2 in an uncontrolled manner. The bursting cork 3 is preferably secured by two securing elements 12 and three shear pins 8. Consequently, three receiving blocks 7 with the corresponding support blocks 10 are provided here.

Weiterhin ist denkbar, dass der Berstkorken 3 und die Aufnahmeblöcke 7 aus einem Gussteil gefertigt sind. Bei einer derartigen Ausführungsform wären die Aufnahmeblöcke 7 im Berstkorken 3 fest integriert.It is also conceivable that the bursting cork 3 and the receiving blocks 7 are made from one casting. In such an embodiment, the receiving blocks 7 would be firmly integrated in the burst cork 3.

Fig. 8 zeigt eine erfindungsgemäße Bersteinrichtung 1 mit einer zusätzlichen Sensoreinrichtung 16. Die Sensoreinrichtung 16 detektiert ein Auslösen der Bersteinrichtung 1, das heißt das Öffnen des Bestkorkens 3, und meldet dies mittels eines digitalen Signals an eine zentrale Überwachungseinheit 17 des Hochspannungsgerätes 2. Dies kann beispielsweise über einen Mikroschalter realisiert werden, wobei dessen Betätigungshebel in unausgelöstem Zustand der Bersteinrichtung 1 gegen den Berstkorken 3 drückt und nach dem Auslösen entspannt wird. Weiterhin ist auch eine analoge Sensoreinrichtung 16 einsetzbar. Diese kann beispielsweise als Fahne (Semaphor) ausgebildet sein, die sich aufstellt, wenn der Berstkorken 3 nach oben gedrückt wird. Fig. 8 shows a bursting device 1 according to the invention with an additional sensor device 16. The sensor device 16 detects a triggering of the bursting device 1, that is to say the opening of the best cork 3, and reports this by means of a digital signal to a central monitoring unit 17 of the high-voltage device 2 Microswitches can be realized, the actuating lever of the bursting device 1 pressing against the bursting cork 3 in the undeployed state and being released after the triggering. Furthermore, an analog sensor device 16 can also be used. This can be designed, for example, as a flag (semaphore) that is raised when the bursting cork 3 is pressed upwards.

Die erfindungsgemäße Bersteinrichtung 1 ist somit kostengünstig, servicefreundlich, langlebig, gegen Witterungseinflüsse von außen unempfindlich, einfach montierbar und austauschbar und löst im Störfall zuverlässig aus.The bursting device 1 according to the invention is thus inexpensive, service-friendly, durable, insensitive to weather influences from the outside, easy to install and replace and triggers reliably in the event of a malfunction.

Durch den Flanschabschnitt 13 in Verbindung mit dem umlaufenden Ansatz 14 ist der Berstkorken 3 vor allem vor äußeren Krafteinflüssen geschützt. Ein unbeabsichtigtes Abstützen oder Auftreten auf den Berstkorken 3 bei Servicearbeiten führt nun nicht mehr zu dessen Zerstörung, da der Berstkorken eine ausreichende Dicke und Stabilität besitzt, um diesen unbeabsichtigten Belastungen während eines Serviceintervalls zu widerstehen. Der Berstkorken 3 besteht vorzugsweise aus Metall, so dass auch die Witterung keinen bedeutenden Einfluss auf dessen Langlebigkeit hat.By means of the flange section 13 in connection with the circumferential extension 14, the bursting cork 3 is above all protected from external forces. An unintentional support or occurrence on the bursting cork 3 during service work no longer leads to its destruction, since the bursting cork has sufficient thickness and stability to withstand these unintentional loads during a service interval. The bursting cork 3 is preferably made of metal, so that the weather has no significant influence on its longevity.

Durch die zusätzlichen Auffangblöcke 10 können, wenn nötig, Teile der Scherstifte 8 aufgefangen werden. Dies ist vor allen beim Einsatz der Bersteinrichtung 1 in einem Laststufenschalter besonders vorteilhaft.The additional collecting blocks 10 can be used to collect parts of the shear pins 8 if necessary. This is particularly advantageous especially when using the bursting device 1 in an on-load tap changer.

Dadurch, dass nur die Scherstifte 8 beim Auslösen der Bersteinrichtung 1 gebrochen werden, ist die Größe der freizugebenden Öffnung eindeutig über die Größe des Berstkorkens 3 definiert. Es wird somit ein kontrollierter Druckabbau sichergestellt.Because only the shear pins 8 are broken when the bursting device 1 is triggered, the size of the opening to be released is clearly defined by the size of the bursting cork 3. This ensures a controlled pressure reduction.

Einen weiteren Vorteil bilden die Sicherungselemente 12, die verhindern, dass der Berstkorken 3 unkontrolliert im Umfeld des Hochspannungsgerätes 2 geschleudert wird und dadurch Schaden verursacht.A further advantage is formed by the securing elements 12, which prevent the bursting cork 3 from being thrown out of control in the vicinity of the high-voltage device 2 and thereby causing damage.
